Article Synopsis
- High school athletic programs in Iowa were surveyed to evaluate their infection prevention measures and the occurrence of skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) among athletes.
- About 60% of the programs participated, with findings showing that those with certified athletic trainers had better cleaning practices and more comprehensive infection policies, especially in higher classification schools.
- Approximately 57% of programs reported at least one SSTI case last year, indicating a need for improved resources and updated policies to combat these infections in high school athletes.
